Babies and Beyond Antenatal Classes (5x2h, evenings)
Traditional antenatal classes, with all the information you need
including C-sections and Epidurals. 5 sessions that cover everything
from labour and birth, through drugs, complications, baby care and
breastfeeding.
Partners are of course welcome and they will learn ways to assist and be a part of the birth as much as they wish.
We offer some snack and drinks in all of the classes.
When: 6.30 - 8.30pm
Rough guide to the theme of each session:
1. Class: Overview of labour and birth. Language and anatomy. Common myths. Positive reinforcement. Breathing and relaxation.
2. Class: Natural ways to cope with labour. Staying at home. Massage for partners. TENS machine. Breathing and relaxation.
3. Class: Medical treatments in labour and birth. Epidural, induction, C-section.
4. Class: Breastfeeding and baby care in the first days at home.
5. Class: Positions for labour and birth. Breathing and relaxation. For women only. Please wear comfortable clothes.
ONE on ONE session with each couple is also included in the course. As soon as you finish, please book this session with one of our midwives (needs to be during daytime). In this session we will cover anything that you want to spend more time on, make a birth plan, and if you missed a class, make up for it.
For further care, we suggest parents to consider additional packages such as midwife care during labour at home, and home visit packages for after the birth.
